Liverpool are planning to sign world-class players to a squad who are on the cusp of winning the Premier League title. However, the Reds are alive to the possibility of picking up young talents and the club are closing in on signing a real wonderkid from the Championship.
Arne Slot has ambitious plans for the overhaul of his squad in the summer and is particularly interested in reconfiguring his attack ahead of next season.
The Liverpool manager wants to add younger players to his squad while trying to ship out stars such as Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota in the next transfer window.
The Liverpool recruitment team are also keen to add young talents who are still not first-team ready, but have a high ceiling and are likely to be available for a reasonable transfer fee.
And one such player is closing in on a move to Anfield.
Can you name the team Liverpool sold these players?
The Reds want Championship youngster with ‘scary potential’
Ryan One has scored just one goal in the Championship this season, but he has left several top Premier League clubs buzzing for him due to his talent.
Chris Wilder has used the 18-year-old forward sparingly this season as he has been keen to rely on more experienced heads as Sheffield United chase promotion.
However, according to Rousing The Kop, it has not stopped Liverpool from trying to take him to Merseyside in the next summer transfer window.
Liverpool scouts are certain that despite his lack of game time, One is a player with scary potential who has it in him to become a top striker shortly.
Other clubs are interested in the Blade as well, but Liverpool are prepared to take on any competition to sign One in the next transfer window.
He is seen as someone who would initially get into the Liverpool academy teams before progressing to the first-team squad.
